Stories for Summer : And Days by the Pool, Paperback / softback Book

Stories for Summer : And Days by the Pool Paperback / softback

Edited by Simon Thomas

Part of the British Library Women Writers series

Paperback / softback

Description

Join a host of female writers in celebrating the sunshine months of the year.

As a sister volume to Stories for Winter, this collection of 15 short stories takes its inspiration from the holiday season.

Grab a copy as you head off to the beach or to lie by the pool and spend time with female protagonists as they navigate life during the hot summer days and long balmy evenings.

In keeping with the spirit of the Women Writers series, the stories are penned by authors whose writing originally appeared in books and magazines in the twentieth century. Launched in 2020, the British Library Women Writers series is a curated collection of novels and anthologies by female authors who enjoyed broad, popular appeal in their day.

In a century during which the role of women in society changed radically, their fictional heroines highlight women's experience of life inside and outside the home through the decades in these rich, insightful and evocative stories.
